"You suffer from whiteheads you can probably treat them yourself with a strict daily..."

What are those pesky white spots that appear on our faces? They are called whiteheads. These whiteheads are a form of acne that is made up of a mixture of oils, sebum and dead skin cell fragments, which result in a hard firm plug inside of the hair follicle. Sebum is the secretion from the oil glands that consists of fat, keratin, and cellular material. Whiteheads become secluded from the surface of the skin due to dead skin cells plugging the opening of the hair follicle. The white color is caused by the ingredients of the hair follicle not being exposed to oxygen in the air. Whiteheads form a light or yellowish white lump; these lumps are called milia, milium, and singular. Bacteria being added to the mixture inside of a whitehead plug it will probably result in an acne cyst. Preventing cystic acne that begins with a whitehead or whiteheads is very important because acne can cause scars and can be very painful. You will find a lot of over the counter products to help eliminate and prevent whiteheads. However, following a simple face cleansing regime will be more than sufficient in the prevention whiteheads and will help destroy existing whiteheads as well.
Too much exfoliation of the skin cells is what can promote whiteheads to form. Some dermatologists believe that some peoples bodies produce a drier form of oil and that promotes the formation of the plug that is known as a whitehead. People that produce drier sebum are believed to be more prone to whitehead breakouts. Sebum produced by most peoples oil glands contains a basic and needed fatty acid called linoleic acid and usually the sebum has a liquid tackiness. When linoleic acid is not available the resulting sebum produced contains oleic acid, this acid is very irritating to the skin and encourages hair follicle plugs to form. Whiteheads and blackheads are both caused by this acid malfunction and if not treated properly will lead to acne flare-ups and possible infection.
Consistent cleansing of the acne prone skin on a daily basis is the key to prevention. Unfortunately, there will probably never be an overnight cure for whiteheads or any other form of acne. Follicle health is promoted best with excellent skin care that should be performed on a daily basis. Some dermatologists do not think eating certain foods causes whiteheads and most do not recommend restricting the diet. Whiteheads are also not caused by dirty skin, which means; excessive scrubbing on the skin will not help and may cause the skin to become more irritated. Water based makeup labeled as non-comedogenic can be used safely and will not clog the pores; makeup with a base ingredient of oil should not be used if you are prone to acne.
Most treatments take a long time before any difference is noticed. Benzoyl peroxide has an antibacterial reaction on the acne and may also decrease the reaction that changes of the inside lining of the follicle. This may help reduce the plugging that causes whiteheads. Benzoyl peroxide is a very common treatment and can be used for whiteheads that are mild and it will also help in the future formation of whiteheads. There are stronger prescriptions that cause discharge of the whitehead components. This causes change in plugged whiteheads into open pores. It has been proven that most antibiotics do not help with the removal or prevention of whiteheads or blackheads. A health care provider may use extraction on open whiteheads. This process is performed using a device called a whitehead extractor. A whitehead extractor is an instrument that is positioned over the whitehead and is pushed down onto the surrounding skin, which causes the whiteheads plug to pop out.
Whiteheads and blackheads are types of acne that affect many people. There are so many different treatments, all of which are very effective. No one should ever deal with excessive whiteheads without trying some form of treatment. Most treatments that can be purchased over the counter are very cost effective, which can save you money in the long run. If you suffer from whiteheads you can probably treat them yourself with a strict daily facial cleansing regime. People who suffer from severe whiteheads or have not found an over the counter drug that is effective should be seen by a dermatologist.>>>>161688.

"And dab a little bit on the pimples and rub it in until it`s..."

First, wash with a water soluble cleanser that won`t irritate your skin. I would recommend Neutrogena`s Foaming Cleanser (it comes in a baby blue bottle with white pump - $7-8 at drugstores).
Only try to pop it if it has a head (like a white head with visible puss). If you try to pop it when there is no head, then it will cause you more problems and keep re-occuring in the same place for a very long time - you don not want this, trust me!!
If it does have a head, use a warm wash cloth to bring the puss to the surface. Then take a tissue and use it to pop the pimple - your fingers have a lot of bacteria and can irritate the skin even more.
Next, get a tube of Clean & Clear`s Persa-Gel 10 and dab a little bit on the pimples and rub it in until it`s absorbed into your skin.
Repeat this process twice a day and your pimple should be gone in a day or two. If this doesn`t help you may have a more serious acne problem and should learn more about your skin and educate yourself on effective acne treatments. I would highly recommend my number one go-to-site by Paula Begoun - www.beautypedia.com. She does amazing research on cosmetic products and is a great resource for skin care education.

One thing you can do is apply an over the counter spot treatment that contains benzoyl perozide or salicylic acid. You can use these to treat the pimple by dabbing some of the spot treatment over the pimple and leaving it on overnight. Neutrogena has a spot treatment.
Another thing you can do is apply ice to the pimple to reduce the redness and swelling which will reduce the size of the pimple some. Only leave the ice on the pimple for 20-30 seconds and make sure it is wrapped in cloth or tissue.

"It will heal more naturally..."

I actually have one right now sadly. Im trying to find myself some remedies too. Ones i came across and helped is.
- putting a cream on it.
- applying aloe vera gel/ cream
-popping ( havent tried, and proablly wont )
and letting it just cool down.
I also was mentioned that its a type of scar, which means, once a head comes, you may pop it, if not, it will heal more naturally, Be patient, ( though its hard since im having a dance in like 2 days) and clean your face at least once a day, : )

What I generally do is place a hot compress on it then (this May sound weird) put a small amount of toothpaste on it, I honestly swear by it not only does it make it come out quicker it prevents scarring I tried it once in Thailand when I really badly burnt my leg on a motorbike and before I wen
t to hospital this man told my parents to put toothpaste on it 10 years later I have no scarring when originally I should have to massive oval shaped scares covering the back of my leg!

Steaming your face or using a hot compress are good ways to make it come to a head. after making it come to a head, if you simply MUST pop it, make sure you get all the pus and stuff out, then clean it out with rubbing alcohol on a q-tip, then put triple antibiotic ointment on it. this prevents infection, which can lead to spreading and scaring.
-katelyn.

Just to say, this morning i woke up, and had a shower, then i came out and noticed a enlargement on a spot that had been on my chest for about 2 years. it finally looked ready to pop, i squeezed it and it popped under my skin, and it wasn`t nice. It was like a mini-explosion.
Any tips on how i can get rid of it, because it is rather foul to think of, and it`s not that good for the ladies either. :L.

You can use anti acne soap. it seems your skin is oil so stop using lotions and oily creams. use water based lotion for skin. don`t eat oily food and junk food. eat as many as fresh vegetables and fruits. increase the intake of water, let say if you drink 6 glasses of water daily, make it ten. by adopting these methods you can avoid pimple and acne.

The best way to bring a under the skin pimple to head is by putting a hot compress, maybe a hot washcloth over it. cleansing lotions can help. the final resort would be a dermatologist who will lance it. a big pimple may cause trouble. but to pop it would be stupid as it can get septic. such a zit can be tackled professionally only.
